Spin: Glasgow visit the artist-run gallery and studios, the duchy. Master Slice is a group show of new work by three Glasgow-based artists whose work examines the linguistic nature of an artworks presentation.
Neil Clements‘ work in this exhibition explores how an artwork could be argued to function as a barrier between artist and audience, occluding meaning as much as communicating it. Glasgow School of Art recent graduate Sam Derounian‘s work is founded upon collaged sculptural forms and compositions using screenprinting, painting, and drawing processes. George Ziffo‘s paintings investigate and challenge the boundaries between portraiture and abstraction.
Founded in June of 2009, the duchy is a new non-profit, artist-run gallery and studio space located in two adjoining shop-fronts on Duke Street, Glasgow. Their intention is to support emerging and early career artists committed to their practice, providing space to create and show work.
